Beautiful mellow mood, without pessimism 👍🏾

This is a very nice version of this.  I think that it has a lot more emotion in it.  Very nice.

Etonnant et réjouissant 🔥👏👏👏!!

Unique bass melody, cool laid back cover, well done!

život u mašini(demo)

Two years ago me and my son went to the beautiful city of Lisbon. I do hope I get to go there soon again and enjoy the lovely atmosphere, people, music, food, narrow streets and beautiful buildings.

Yesterday I started my small tribute to the lovely city, I finished it today and hope you will enjoy the listen.

On a Bench

On a Bench (instr.)

a live cut from our recent Rat Palace Sessions Album Launch. The piece is an improvisation based on a track from the album - which of course is also an improv.  So we are going down the rabbit hole here performing improvs based on improvs, each time changing into something slightly different.

Kirby/Ward LIVE - thumbs

This song was wrote a few years back in an acoustic form. 
Mike has transformed it into a beast with his mighty skill set, production skills and most of all his patience .
He really is too modest because he never blows his own trumpet and needs to take full credit for his graft. 
So I am telling you when you listen remember who made it happen.
Nat as added her amazing vocals and always gives a song a different slant, which I love.
Leave both these wonderful people to their own devices and they deliver beyond all expectations on these collaborations. 
It’s a song for all that simple sibling rivalry and for the musicians who have been in bands with their elder brothers  or sisters.
You have to either leave or your sibling as to leave because something always gives. 
Arguing, fighting and always competing for your creative edge to be heard.
I experienced this when I was younger with my older brother but it was the best thing for both of us to part ways musical. 
It allowed me to grow as a singer/ songwriter and gain my own identity. We both went on to establish the things we wanted to do. The experience I gained from constantly playing live with him was invaluable.
It always felt that when I left for a while  I was always playing to him in my head wanting him to just recognise how I had grown and doing my own thing but I don’t think he ever did. 
It was always me more than him and he probably never realised. We never let it put a wedge between us and always got on after and still do.
There are many that have never made up I would imagine and should because life is too short. 

For My Audience Of One 

V1
A creation from the same mother
(Playing rock stars with your elder brother) 
From the council estate to touring Europe 
(You tried to the USA and became a standing tourist )
When your private life takes to the stage
(And the in fighting gets a little harder to gauge)
When your milk chocolate
you  just eat yourself
(And  little old you as been left out to melt)

Chorus 
Everything  is done 
For an audience of one 
And that audience is you 
And sadly it’s true x2)

V2
(And now you don’t even
 talk at all no not anymore )
Just word salad rants and Twitter x squawk
(Your just letting go from your blind panic) 
I’m Living a better life feeling super Organic

Chorus 

Middle 8 

(He left you in the blue hour
the glorious sunset turned sour
Waiting for your new sunrise
To blind those blue 
……Adriatic eyes)

Chorus…….

Outro
Everything is done 
For my audience of one

For My Audience Of One ~ Fox, Brownie & Daniels

Wrote the title phrase on a birthday card and immediately thought  that's a 'song title'.  The first take of the vocal was a loose ramble but I just left it in - it seemed to fit.

Love Our Together Life

That cliché thick and thin about loving all the time
We’re not vascillating over always gotta rhyme
Doubling up in laughter keeps an even keel
And getting to a sweet spot finally it’s real

We drove out to the cliff and back
Now it’s all about giving back

It’s life upon a road with little jobs to do
And a race across the sand to share the view
It’s pouring out the drinks as the sun dips down 
And talking ‘bout the people who we see around 
Love our together life
Love our together life

Back in days of war it was tight in the lip
And the putting up of walls with a face half lit
Cause expectations could never be met
And it takes a lot of years to wind it back to less 

Yeah giving up on hurt and feeling how it was
In the years embryonic burning hot
And the psyche bathed in the songs of the time
But transplanting now to a wiser kind of rhyme

Love Our Together Life

'Turn The Page Please' is a Jazz Fusion/Rock track and features Tony Conway on guitar (solo).
It's always a pleasure to have Tony join me and no exception here, as he takes another excellent solo.

Dear Reader, 

Not all songs must exist on the grid. This song has no click track and therefore, it breathes. As a result, nothing was quantized. It's real playing and real performances. I hope that you can hear it. 

Of course,  the song was multitracked (I played and sang everything, so it had to be) and since there was no grid, I had to listen and react to make it gel.  I hope you consider what I did a success. 

Thanks as always for coming back to listen to more of my music. In the past four years I have produced more than 140 original music videos and I have gained 800 subscribers. This is only the beginning. I have much more music to write, arrange and produce, and I am thankful for every listen. 

Respectfully, 

Roger Whittlesey
